Hellraid

Escape A Hellish Monastery In Interactive Video

Techland's upcoming game Hellraid pits up to four players against the inhabitants of a monastery that's been overrun by demons and other assorted beasts. The company has released a new interactive trailer for the game that puts you in the shoes of a monk named Edyn who's desperately hoping to escape.

The trailer is set a week before the events of the game. Players have to make the right decisions to guide Edyn safely away from the monastery. It's an exercise in trial and error, unlike the actual game, but it also does a good job of showing off the world and some of the enemy designs. Judging from some of the bad decisions available to players, the monks knew how to set up some mean traps. Beware.

The monk is one of the game's four playable classes, along with the rogue, mage, and warrior. If you manage to get Edyn out safely, your reward is a downloadable track from the game's score.

Look for Hellraid later this year on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, and PC.
